Custom Prop Money in Australia: The Complete Guide

When custom prop money is worth it

Off-the-shelf prop notes cover most productions, but custom notes earn their place when the money itself needs to say something: a fictional bank for a TV series, a branded note for a product launch, a personalised denomination for a milestone event, or a currency that does not exist for a fantasy or sci-fi world.

The design process

• You brief us on the concept — logo, bank name, colours, denomination, level of detail
• We design artwork from scratch: never a copy of a genuine note, always reduced scale with prop markings built in
• You receive a digital proof to review and revise
• You approve a final printed proof before the full run starts

Timelines and minimums

Custom runs start at 250 notes and typically take 7 to 10 business days from proof approval. Rush options are sometimes available around a production date — ask when you brief us.

Compliance is built in, not bolted on

Every custom note follows the same rules as our stock range: a size clearly different from genuine banknotes, visible prop markings, and no replicated security features — no holograms, no UV ink, no clear windows. We will not produce a run that removes markings or replicates security features.

Get started

See the custom branded prop notes product or the custom & branded category, then send your brief through the contact page or wholesale form for larger runs.

Quick answers

What is the minimum order for custom prop money?

250 notes. Larger runs are quoted with tiered pricing through our wholesale program.

Can you print a note with a real bank’s branding?

No. Custom notes use fictional or clearly altered bank names and never reproduce a real institution’s branding or a genuine note’s artwork.
